He eats aptasia but he's also a polyp nipper so now that the aptasia is under control he's getting his eviction notice $20

Tony, I wouldn't trust it with any corals long term, Raccoons are one of the most prolific coral munchers. Sorry don't mean to deraill your sale.

I dont have any lps right now but i wouldnt trust him with polyps, lps or clams i had one a few years ago and he would nip my clam once in a while, he dosent really kill any of the polyps but the tend to stay closed up now,

Yeah I was noticing you had SPS in there that looks OK hence why I asked about LPS. I've had raccoon before so I know what to expect long-term but I was curious about LPS because individuals can vary in their preferences. Good point about the clams, I can't remember if I had clams in with mine in the past, I might not have. Anyhow thanks for the info, good luck with the sale. I wish I could put him in my FOWLR as I love raccoons but the but the double-saddleback butterfly that's in there already is pretty aggressive towards newcomers.
